The 'OMG, how fÚcking random is the Interweb!' thread

WhiteWashMan · 01-09-2006 10:32am #1

a thread for those websites and stories that are just beyond belief, ultra cool, or just plain bizarre that you feel everyone should visit at least once in their like. bit like goatse. (although, i believe thats gone now - according to pepe le fritz)

i would ask that you dont link up to porn or other sunjective offensive material.
if in doubt leave it out.

if it is not safe for work, then please label as such with a big *NSFW*.

off the top of my head, i cant think of any sites.

typical

Full of wonderful things for when you can't bring yourself to do something useful.

If you haven't seen www.somethingawful.com yet, you should be killed with spoons.

Is www.youtube.com a bit too obvious?

How about www.boards.ie ?

Great website, and according to conservativeestimates.com it has a randomness factor of 9.6

Safe for work, btw.

Odd story from Reuters.

BEIJING (Reuters) - An intoxicated Chinese man who tried to give a panda a hug at Beijing Zoo found himself biting it in self defence after his clumsy attempt at affection was savagely rejected, local media reported on Thursday.

Zhang Xinyan, a building worker on holiday from China's central Henan province, climbed into an enclosure that held Gu Gu, a seven-year-old panda, at Beijing Zoo after the man had drunk four pints of beer during lunch at a nearby restaurant, the Yanzhao Metropolis Daily said.

Zhang, who couldn't remember the incident clearly, had wanted to hug the panda and shake its hand after having watched similar scenes on television.

"When I was in there, the panda was eating bamboo. Then, it seemed some people shouted, which startled the panda. He rushed over to bite my leg," Zhang said.

Zhang, who tried in vain to push the panda away, was bitten twice and forced to the ground, the paper said.

"I took the opportunity to bite the panda's back, but its fur was too thick," Zhang said.

Eventually, a zoo worker sprayed water from a hose to rescue Zhang from the panda's clutches, the paper said.

Both were worse for wear after the tussle. Zhang was rushed to hospital and given tetanus and rabies shots, while Gu Gu lost her appetite, Xinhua news agency reported.

"It was scared by the intruder and refused to eat for one and a half days," a zoo spokeswoman, surnamed Ye, told Xinhua.
